Tarpley, Vaughters sign NFL deals
Two Stanford undrafted linebackers have reached free agent deals with NFL teams.
A.J. Tarpley, one of Stanford's most productive linebackers, has reached a deal to play for Rex Ryan and the Buffalo Bills. James Vaughters has reached a deal to play for the Green Bay Packers.
Tarpley, a fifth-year senior who finished the 2014 season with 84 tackles, was disappointed that he was not draft, but said he is used to being overlooked.
"Not getting drafted was a disappointment but will be nothing I haven't dealt with before," Tarpley said, according to Tom Fitzgerald of the San Francisco Chronicle.
Vaughters had 51 tackles, 11 tackles for loss and 6.5 sacks during his senior season at Stanford.
